Is it bad up your way ? I'm not too bad as have 4x4 Subaru but its never an easy drive in snowy conditions no matter what you drive. I see on news Amber warning out now and not drive unless you need to. Dave

How did it end ??

How did it end ???

I think my point is that beginners don’t know what is actually simple and what is not a video of it being played plus tab for reference however might make something feel achievable

One of my all-time favourite bassist and such a great bloke too. His playing was both melodic and groovy and ALWAYS made the songs better.

Wise move I think!

While I didn't use them for this, I have been perusing Cathy's Custom Guitars on Facebook. They don't sell from the page, you need to PM one of the site mods. They seem to do four main (Gibson copy) guitars, Les Paul, SG, Vees and Explorers, although I gave seen 335.

Probably just as well as the journey might have been, let’s say interesting.

Welcome Paul.

Free Fallin' - Tom Petty

Now that i'm playing a bit less hard with my right hand plucking its changed "my tone" from a hard edgy Ric type rock sound to a more mid focused mellower punch with more depth. Think what i'm saying is that simple little changes in style do affect how i sound out front. Please note i'm on the JD Honey tonight as tomorrows gig in Dundee was cancelled as their boiler / heating system has failed and can't get parts till Monday. Dave

Hey everyone!

I had a set of Animas ( sold them on here!). The de tuned sports are a different beast to normal orchestral strings. If you’re ever in Bristol give em a go.

Go with songs you like to listen to as a starting point, probably avoiding those with what are considered advanced/busy bass lines, at least to start with.

I am definitely interested in this beginners corner!

Nafiri got back to me and state that the "only" international shipping option they have access to is DHL Express...seems a bit strange that DHL are the "only" inter shipper working within Indonesia, no way am i paying £194.35 for Delivery!

Awful lot of people “asking for a friend” … in old-fashioned plague prevention style I trust that the infection shall not come here to these hallowed halls of resonance 🧐
